    Helpful, but is there more context here?

    Such as who are there people currently living there and therefore voting in this referendum?

      People who has always live there?

      The Maldives has never had Spanish/Argentinian population.

      Argentina only claims it based on physical proximity, not on the will of its population.

      The descendants of the only people to live on the islands since pre-history. Literally the only people whose opinions count, including the uk population and government. It doesn’t matter what the Argentinians or the British think really, same as Greenland - the people who live there want to be a part of the uk
